Registered Veterinary Nurse
Easipetcare, Chatham
Salary up to £30,000 FTE depending on experience plus a welcome bonus up to £2,500
An exciting opportunity has become available for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join us at easipetcare, Chatham!
Our Registered Veterinary Nurses are the absolute backbone of our practice, and generally have a hand in most areas of the day-to-day which include carrying out schedule 3 procedures (subject to appropriate training), anaesthesia monitoring, scrubbing in, looking after our inpatient care, carrying out various types of nurse clinics, completing laboratory duties and much more! There is the opportunity to become a clinical coach in the future if of interest where you will be supporting the Head Nurse in the supervision/training of our SVNs and ANAs.
Fix or flex - work-life balance that works for you
We try to keep things interesting/varied here at easipetcare, so our Registered Veterinary Nurses typically work full time, 40 hours per week, across 4/5 days, consisting of either an early shift (8:00 am to 4.30 pm) or a late (11:00 am to 7.30 pm). Our nurses also work 1 in 3 Saturdays and in turn, receive time off in lieu the following week and there is no OOH. However, we know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it brilliantly easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you are looking to fix or flex your work patterns, we can find the right solution for you.
